In the Main Gallery the Union Gallery presents 24/7 an exhibition by 1st year Fine Arts students on view from April 7-28, 2006.

24/7 is a group exhibition by twenty-four 1st year Fine Art students that includes work produced over the course of seven months.

In the Project Room, the Union Gallery presents an presentation of documentation from the Out of Site: art negotiating neglected spaces project by 4th year BFA students Lisa Visser, Talie Shalmon and Samantha Mogelonsky, starting March 25th, 2006.

Out of Site is an off-site series of contemporary and temporary art projects presented in out of the way, overlooked and/or transitory spaces around Queen's University campus starting March 25th through April 17th, 2006. Three artists from the Fine Arts program at Queen's will install temporary artworks which animate and respond to the sites.
